REALLY difficult 1742 parish book
Can anyone read this? Trying to confirm marriage 22 October 1742 of Ole Jonsen/ Joensen and Inger Olsdatter.
21 October was 22 Sondag e. Trin. I cannot even read dates on this. Late 1742 is pages 78-79 at https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/16629/79
Ministerialprotokoller, klokkerbøker og fødselsregistre - Nordland, 852/L0733: Parish register (official) no. 852A03, 1725-1748
Any additional information? Forloverne? Residence? I hope I see the Saltdal farm name but it could be pareidolia.
Thank you so much.

This is really hard handwriting and I’m not very good at this old of records, but I can point out a couple of things. The date you are looking for is actually on the page before the one you posted.
I’ve underlined the dates bracketing the entry you are looking for in green. Dom. 22 post trinitas and Dom 23 post trinitas, although I think a different term than post trinitas is being used here.
Going through looking for events, which I’ll underline in blue, I see an Introduction, a series of burials (these all have ages after the names), a baptism, a notation of how many either were in attendance or took communion (I’m not exactly which of the two Com. signifies).
Then some lines I can’t read. Then come the marriages (copul.) I’ll mark them in red.
The second marriage is for an Ola Jons. and Inger Olsdr., marked in yellow. There are no farm names. I’m not sure what comes after Inger’s name but I think it is more names which might be forloverne but since the first marriage didn't list any, I doubt that is what they are..
I hope someone else can pick a little more out of this for you.

My answer did disappear, but Gordon has come up with the same thing I did.

On page 78, 10 lines from the bottom of the right column, you can read "Dom. 22 Guds Trin" which would be, I believe, your date of 21 October. What follows, then, on the remainder of that column appears to be a list of things that were done on that Sunday. I can make out some burials and a christening. On the next page, the third line mentions "Com: 124". That would be 124 people who took communion (or were, at least, at Sunday services that day". The fourth line on that page (79), the first word is "Mandag" which is "Monday" (22 October, most likely). What follows, appears to be a list of people who got married (or perhaps engaged) because there is always a male name, then the word "och=and" followed by a female name. The last word on the 9th line is "Copul", which would be married, followed by the names "Ole Jons(sen) and Inger Olsd(atte)r". I think that is your couple.
